Glare with Qobuz…

Noticed glare and slight edginess especially in the midrange and lower treble with Qobuz lately. Going on for about 6 days now.

No such issues with Tidal or my analog front end. No changes in the system or network.

Anyone noticed this or is it just me?

Question -- what other souces do you routinely use? Have you done a direct comparison? It is possible that there is something going on with your streamer or DAC.

Redbook version sounds more or less fine. I’ll start troubleshooting. Rebooted roon core. No difference.
